Vienna is fantastic, and there are a lot of nice places to see. Glacis Beisl is a hidden garden café in the Museumsquartier – and well worth a try for a drink or lunch. Wien er fantastisk, og har mange fine steder det er vel verdt å besøke. Glacis Beisl er en bortgjemt hagekafé midt i sentrum av byen, […]

Snart drar jeg på tur til Wien. Som netthoder og reisebloggere flest liker jeg å være forberedt. Etter min mening finner du ikke de beste inside-tipsene på Tripadvisor og på de offisielle nettsidene til byen. Her deler jeg noen av stedene jeg har funnet frem til. Enjoy! Soon I am going til Vienna. Like most […]

We visited Sweet Rendez-vous kafé at the Majorstua library. Lilla (left) and her two friends from Hungary had set up a lovely pop-up restaurant for the book readers. Here they sold home-made marzipan, cookies, pistachio muffins and savory muffins. And coffee, of course. I love the idea of the international Restaurant Day, you can read […]

Lysebu is a magic place before Christmas. First weekend in December I stayed there as a part of my work writing for the Historic Hotels blog. (You can read the article in Norwegian here.) We booked the package “romantic stay”, and were not disappointed. 20 minutes drive from the centre of Oslo you find this gem […]

Summer town no 1 in Norway is Lillesand in Aust-Agder! And this year you have one more reason to go: Kafé Strandhaven!  It´s a cosy place with nice food and a great garden with view of the harbour – and far away – the horizon. Go there to have a nice cup of coffee with friends […]

If you want to stay in one of the trendiest and coolest hotels in New York at the moment, try the Wythe Hotel in Williamsburg, Brooklyn!

Eco-friendly, ethical and colourful redesign – all in one shop? Yes, it´s possible. Go visit Østenfor – a shop situated close to the town of Moss in Norway. You can read on their Facebook page: “Østenfor is a shop which sells products which communicate hope.” That sentence covers my impression of the shop, too! They […]

After reading the dutch blog Yvestown Blog I became fascinated by Eindhoven and Piet Hein Eek, and decided to visit the place next time I´m in the country. This quote from the blog had me convinced: “Don’t just travel to Amsterdam as Amsterdam doesn’t really reflect The Netherlands, it’s just another European capital. Travel south […]
